Installed rakudo and started playing with some basics and tutorials.
Some pretty cool stuff.

Re the "bind" function, is there a way to "unbind" 2 variables after
being bound?  Bind would be a great way to simulate different
hardware signals tied together with wires. But hardware can connect
and disconnect, so an "unbind" would be needed.

Also, I recall way back when, perl 6 was going to have subroutines
you could call, that would return mid sub, and when called again
it would start up where it last left off. I think its called
a Coroutine? Havent seen that in the rakudo tutorials I have
been working through.  Is rakudo going to support this? This would
be a must-have to simulate hardware in perl.

Kind of thought they might come up in the parrallelism talk, but i guess
its a different variation.

SystemC is a way to simulate hardware using a library in c.
It would be great if perl6 could simulate hardware natively,
with no external library needed.

Also, just a pedantic complaint, but if you want the size of an array,
you should call size(), not elems();
